Ryder Cup captain Davis Love dedicated the 41st Ryder Cup to the memory of Arnold Palmer after the golfing great's recent death.

A video montage was played at the opening ceremony and a moment of silence was held in memory of the seven-time major champion, who played on six victorious Ryder Cup teams and captained one.
